Our scrapbooks are full of the holidays, birthdays and special events. But what about those little, everyday moments? For the January Layout Contest, we'd love to see your layouts featuring everyday moments or habitual tasks that would otherwise go undocumented. Please post your layouts in the January Monthly Layout Gallery before January 31st at midnight Eastern Time and you could be one of the two people who will win a $10 gift certificate to the Scrap Girls Boutique! Be sure to add your product credits to the description area or in the EXIF properties.

My first thought about this is Fly Lady's "Shine your sink". Its a habit I got into quite a while back and even though it sounds goofy, it really does bring order to my life. And I do it just about everyday now.

LOL at mention of Flylady!! She brought sanity and order into my life years ago after first having kids. Guess I better go shine my sink so I can snap a shot! Seriously, this challenge should be interesting. Looking forward to using some of the new stash!

Sure it counts Sara! If it's something you do that you normally won't think about documenting!

Some other ideas are quiet time with a child reading, walking the dog, or even watching a favorite program on tv. It's just something little to add to our scrapbooks so future generations know that our lives weren't all events and holidays...

I'm finally getting back into the swing of things and working on some layouts. Here is my layout of an Everyday Moment. I had this in mind when I took these pictures. I wanted my husband and grandson to be able to look back and see how much they meant to each other and how much they enjoyed each others company doing everyday things.

I love this topic and it inspired me to make a page I've been thinking about for awhile. Just an everyday kind of thing I wouldn't normally scrap - Saturday Morning Breakfast! My family will be able to look at this someday and remember the big breakfasts we used to make on a weekend! TFL! My Breakfast Legacy

My life has changed in so many ways as far as Everyday Moments go since I started babysitting for this sweet little guy. His Mom went back to work as a paralegal and asked me to babysit for her first baby! I am loving every minute of it and am enjoying having a little one in my home again.
